Thought For The Day
Aug 9, 1999

An interesting question posed by suck.com: If a fifteen-year-old murders someone, is tried as an adult, is sentenced to federal prison, and is sodomized in the shower room, does his rapist get tried as a child molester?

Search Engine Madness
Jul 15, 1999

Yesterday, the guy in the neighboring cubicle at work was killing time by watching Magellan's search engine voyeur. (http://voyeur.mckinley.com/cgi-bin/voyeur.cgi) For those who aren't familiar with the concept, it's basically a page that shows you what searches other people have made on Magellan's page within the last fifteen seconds. Mostly, you see just what you would expect to see (such as "where can I find hot sexxxy women?", or "CIA +JFK +UFO"), but every now and then there's an amusing one. ("Where'd I put my shoes?")

And then this one appeared: "How do you treat a scorpion sting?" This boggled our minds. Imagine the situation:

"Ahhh! John! I've just been stung by a scorpion! Call a doctor!"

"A _doctor_! Are you kidding? This is 1999! Who needs doctors, we've got the Internet! Let me just pull up Magellan's search engine here..."

"Hurry! My arm is swelling up... My vision is all blurry!"

"Don't worry honey, we'll have you fixed right up... hang on, the page is loading... hmmm, most of these are porn sites..."

"I... aaah... <gurgle>"

"... hmm, these aren't very informative, maybe I should try Yahoo..."

"<thump>"


We fully expected the next entry to be: "HELP ME I'M ON FIRE!!"
